In partnership with the Brockville Public Library, Transition Brockville, a local citizens' group founded in 2007, holds free public presentations and information sessions. The meeting topics promote the City of Brockville's sustainability and help individuals and our community transition away from a global economy dependent on fossil fuels to one that is more locally based. In this way people can be more resilient to the challenges presented by climate change, resource depletion, overpopulation and economic stagnation.
Over the years, Transition Brockville has collected books on topics ranging from the science of climate change and studies on civilization, economics and ecology to the creative ways individuals and local communities can make themselves more resilient.
